He felt no pain or heaviness, and could run and jump. For a moment, he thought he was healed.

However, within two days, the effect of the medicine wore off and he returned to his original physical condition.

Only then did he realize that this medicine was only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure.

After experiencing the miraculous effects of the medicine, he couldn't wait to ask his friends to buy it.

A friend told him that the drug was currently selling for 10 million yuan per pill on the black market, and that it was extremely rare and in short supply. He had only just come across seven pills by chance and gave him three.

Later, he also mobilized people to inquire about this miracle drug called Xueming Pills, but he found that many people were counterfeiting business opportunities and selling fake drugs, and no one was interested in the real drugs.

As to why this medicine is so expensive and rare, I heard that it cannot be made and must be exchanged for human lives.

Most of the world's wealthy are already elderly. Having built their fortunes in their youth, they now only want to survive. The miraculous life-saving properties of life-extending pills naturally attract a large number of wealthy individuals.

Today is the New Year's Eve dinner. If these children see that I am seriously ill and cannot even attend the dinner, I am afraid that the dispute over family property will become more and more intense.

With his frail body, he was afraid that he could no longer suppress these people. Therefore, the old man had no choice but to take this pill.

There was only one pill left, and he planned to wait until he was about to die to distribute his family property in case of emergency.

Naoki didn't know that other people who had come out of the Hell Casino had already done business with the props purchased from the store.

After all, she is not short of money, so of course she will not sell these props.

However, most people who do this will save the precious demon coins for the next game unless they are extremely short of money in reality.

After all, games where players compete against each other are not uncommon. Compared to making money, your own life is more important. Unless it's your family or yourself who's sick.

Of course, she didn't know that the people in this world were more ruthless than she thought. In the devil's shop, a bottle of sixty life-extending pills cost five devil coins, and each pill was crushed into powder, mixed with useless impurities, and then made into three pills for sale.

Naoki didn't know about these things.

Because she had walked down from the second floor safely and returned to Sakura.

"Naoki, are you okay? What did grandpa say?"

Zhixi shook his head: "Grandpa didn't get angry with me, so we can have a good meal here today."

When the others saw Naoki being called up and coming down safely, they were all surprised and whispered to each other.

In any case, since Naoki was not kicked out, it means that the head of the family has agreed to let her stay here for dinner today.

So everyone started to guess what the old man was thinking.

Is it because he has a good temper and doesn't chase people away, or is it because he really accepts Naoki's identity as Sakura's girlfriend?

This will affect their attitude towards Naoki.

After all, guessing the thoughts of those in power is part of survival in a workplace family.

Sakura couldn't quite believe it. Grandpa had just let Naoki go like that? Was Naoki really not being bullied?

Could it be that Naoki was actually being bullied but didn't want to tell her?

"Naoki, are you really okay?"

"It's really okay, sister."

Naoki called out sweetly and nuzzled Sakura.

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, the adults turned their heads away in embarrassment or disgust.

At this time, Machiko and her family also arrived.

"Wow, I was supposed to get here half an hour ago. There's so much traffic downtown, oh my goodness."

Machiko walked up to the two of them excitedly.

"Sakira-san, and Naoki."

"Machiko, second uncle, second aunt."

Sakura greeted the two elders and then received a lucky money.

Naoki was so envious. After coming to this world, he didn't know if it was because of the protagonist's halo that he became an orphan. He spent the New Year alone, not to mention receiving New Year's money.

Although I am not short of money at all, it still feels different when I get pocket money from my elders.

Like everyone else, the two of them also looked at Naoki a few more times.

"Is this the Naoki that Machiko always praises? Here, this is the New Year's money your uncle and aunt gave you."

Out of the blue, Naoki received a lucky money.

And what? Machiko kept praising herself to her family?

"Thank you, auntie and uncle."

Naoki put the white envelope in her arms. She was really happy because she received the New Year's money.
